Yes, ocelots can be preyed upon by larger predators, including jaguars and pumas, especially when they are young or vulnerable. Additionally, they may fall victim to larger Birds of Prey. However, as medium-sized carnivores, adult ocelots are generally at the top of their food chain in their habitats.
